The Radicals win.

CHICAGO, Jan. "A victory for the
radical or socialistically inclined element
was the result of the semi-annual election
of officers in the Chicago Trades assembly
to-day. William Kliver and Fred Long
were elected respectively to the presidency
and vice presidency the only officers bal
loted for. Withdrawals from the assembly
and changes in the delegates since the Col

triumph

NOfYet Decided.

WASHINGTON, Jan. AT Calume t
place to-day it was stated that no steps have
vet been taken toward selecting final
resting place for the remains of Gen.

Iogan's friends from Chicago called upon
her, and it was decided to let the matter
rest for the present. 1t is not probable
that the body Will be removed from its
present resting place before spring.

disinfection was futile 81 have
month to hear that your commits
sion had adopted rigorous and thorough
policy of dealing with the plague, one that
swould restore confidence to the country
and allow trade to go on once more from
the veXatiOuS restrictions. | had about
concluded that the slaughter of the dis
tillery cattle was the beginning of such a
policy. and it was with deepest regret L
learn of this misguided action, which must
have the opposite effect, being frequently
appealed to for advice as to the necessity
for local guarantees. 1t is apparent that
it will become my duty to admit that the
measure adopted in your state is not
thorough. and that the commission is not
enforcing the measure which can reason
ably be considered necessary to stamp out
the cOntagion at once and for all time. In
conclusion permit me to assure you that
thaIt have had
THE UTMOST CONFIDENCE
in your desire to have such measures
enforced as would free Illinois in the
shortest possible time from harboring this
plague. 1t appears now doubly important
that you should take such action as will
leave no reason for doubling in the mind
of any one what is to be the future policy
| of your state live stock commissioners. To
this end will respectfully suggest that you
cause the order of the board in regard to
refillings the Shutfeld's sheds to be revoked:
that the cattle in these sheds be imme-
diately slaughtered, and that this depart
ment be given the opportunity to practice
such disinfectiOn as is desirable and posi-
| bic under the circumstances.
make the suggestion ON behalf of the
great cattle industry for the protection of
an important part of the nations food sup
ply on behalf of all interested, which are
together threatened through this lack of CO.
operation with the department of agriculture
on the part of the board which represents
your state.'

The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1887-03-09

The Megantic Railroad Company asks for
an amendment to its charter that shall per-
init it to construct railroad between Green
vile, at the foot Of Moosehead Lake, and
the Bangor & Katahdin Iron Works Rail-
road on a line parallel with the Bangor &
Piscataquis railroad and only zen miles dis
tant from 1t. Bangor, which owns the Ban
sor g. Piscataquis railroad naturally enough
views with alarm this movement, which if
1t succeeds, cannot but affect very unfavor-
ably that road, and the whole city is up in
arms against it. The Bangor case seems
very strong one, and it is difficult to see how
the Legislature can ignore it. Bangor in
vested its money in this road on the under
standing that it should not be paralleled,
and two Legislatures by refusing permission
to the Megantic TO build its road where il
now again asks to build it, have given their
sanction to that understanding. For the
present Legislature to permit this amend
ment to the charter would not only not be
keeping faith with Bangor, but would be
preferring the interests of foreign corpora
tion to the interests Of our own citizens.

A vigorous effort was made in the Senate
yesterday to modify the new temperance bill
and 1t succeeded to the extent of striking out
the cider clause. 1t is modification, how
ever, that does not amount to much. OF
much more consequence was Senator Heaths
explanation that the clause imposing impris-
onment for first offence did not apply to sin
gle sale or search and seizure. As most of
the complaints are based ON one or the other
of these, that explanation takes good deal
of the sting out of the law.

The Argus explains the defeat of Mr..
Mccarthy in the same way that that paper
has explained every Democratic defeat for
the last twenty years. The Democrats were
bought with rum and money. One would
suppose that party of any self respect
would get sick of being advertised in this
way once or twice year, but the Democracy
apparently enjoy it.

Portland women in large numbers still con-
tinue to sign circumstances against woman's
suffrage. Another document of this kind
appeared in the legislature yesterday. AS
an expression of sentiment they are well
enough but they are not needed to defeat
the bill That is dead for this session al
ready

Cleary is the last one of the Doodle alder
men to be put upon his trial. The others
are either in the penitentiary or in exile.
Considerable sympathy has been worked up
for Cleary, who, previous to his connection
with the infamous board, seems to have been
an~honest and respectable man. His bad
company, however, corrupted him, for there
is little doubt of his guilt

The failure of Congress to pass the gener-
al deficiency bill bids fair to seriously inter
fere with the weather service. There was
plenty of time to prepare and properly con-
slider the bill, but the appropriation commit
tee held 1t back to further some schemes of
their own. Perhaps the time will come
when the House will not allow one of its
COMMITTEES to practically dictate what it shall
do and what 1t shall not do.

The Tories are very much dspleased at
the appointment of the Right Hon. A. j.
Balfour to be be Chief Secretary for Ireland.
They say he is too mild a man for the post,
and that Parnell will laugh at him. 1t is
understood, however, that it was Hobson's
choice with the premier. Nobody else would
take the place, which is the most difficult
and uncomfortable in the gift Of the British
Crown

The Chicago Congregational ministers got
together Monday to prepare and send to Mrs.
Beecher an expression Of sympathy. Objee-
ton was made by some Of the minister's
however, on account Of Mr.. Beecher's theo-
logical views, and when they came to vote,
though there was a majority in favor of pre-
pairing and sending the expression there was
considerable minority opposed. The pro-
poser of the resolution then withdrew it on
the ground that 1t would be in bad taste to
send resolution that was not unanimous
1t is difficult to see why Mr. Beecher's theo-
logical views should have had any influence
In matter of this kind, or how 1t could
have compromised any of these ministers to
have sent the message of sympathy even If
the dying man had been professed infdel.

The passage Of the Septennate bill was as
sured when the election returns came in.
The question now IS purely one Of majority.
As Bismarck cares little for the populer
voice 1t probably makes no difference to
him whether the majority is large or small.

The legislators are beginning to grow un-
easy and anxious to get home. There is
much yet to be done, however. Two weeks
will probably be needed to conclude the bust.
